I'm sweating...
There always roped in though arnt they? He was roped in and never unbuckled himself.
That was 6mins of hell, but I'm doing it again...
Yeah mate,I don't have a head for hights either. They seem to put a lot of trust into that rope that is buckled into the wall. Wouldn't be me. Also,if they do fall,how the hell do they get back up. Looks like quite a spiritual place. Marcus could get a few good shots up there lol
I don't think this guy was tied in. He was moving to fast. I'd be interested to know the story of why tge trails there.
n 1901 it became obvious that workers at the hydroelectric power plants at Chorro Falls and Gaitanejo Falls needed a walkway to cross between the falls, to provide for transport of materials, and for the inspection and maintenance of the channel. Construction of the walkway took four years and it was finished in 1905.
In 1921 King Alfonso XIII crossed the walkway for the inauguration of the dam Conde del Guadalhorce and it became known by its present name.[1]
In some places the walkway has collapsed.
The walkway is one meter (3 feet and 3 inches) in width, and rises over 100 meters (350 feet) above the river below. It is currently in a highly deteriorated state and there are numerous sections where part of or the entire concrete top has collapsed away. The result is large open air gaps that are bridged only by narrow steel beams or other support fixtures. Very few of the original handrails exist but a Via ferrata safety-wire runs the length of the path. Several people have lost their lives on the walkway in recent years and after two fatal accidents in 1999 and 2000,[2] the local government closed both entrances.
The regional government of Andalusia budgeted in 2006 for a restoration plan[3] estimated at € 7 million.
original video he wasn't clipped in. Video description says so underneath.
I dont think that foot path would meet health and saftey regulations in the UK
The footpath is a metre wide and he he strolls by other people as if he is taking a walk in the park,especially risky as there is hardly any handrails. Nerves of steel if you ask me.
This looks like a rush also.
